rose gold

Copper-tinted precious metal

Rose gold is a gold alloy with a pinkish hue, created by mixing gold with copper.

The copper content determines the depth of color—more copper produces a redder tone.

Rose gold appears in jewelry, watches, and decorative objects: a rose gold engagement ring, the phone comes in rose gold.

The color name extends beyond metal to describe similar warm pink-copper tones in cosmetics, fashion, and design.
